Did it get hot? Or Have you tried unloading/reloading the ohci/ehci/xhci?
The used USB-PHY FUSB200 (in the AR9170) is known to misbehave. If you
want to read more about the implications and possible solution, you can
visit the ath9k_htc firmware community. They have written a wiki entry
which describes the issues in detail [0].

Commands are issued on the devices end point #4.... And the response the
driver is waiting for doesn't get through. If you want to debug this, 
you'll need to look at the usb data stream and check which party (host
controller (ehci/ohci), device (AR9170) or cable?) is at fault.

Christian
